The geometry of `[Ni(CO)_4]` and` [Ni(PPh_3)_2 Cl_2]` are

A

both square planar

B

tetrahedral and square planar respectively

C

both tetrahedral

D

square planar and tetrahedral respectively.

Text Solution

Verified by Experts

The correct Answer is:
C

Coordination isomerism arises from the interchange of ligands between cationic and anionic entities of different metal ions present in the complex. e.g., `[Co(NH_3)_6][Cr(CN)_6]` and `[Cr(NH_3)_6] Co(CN)_6]`
